I decided to go ahead and make a starter pack of historians, scientists, and others who work on scientific racism. If you’d like to be added to the pack (or removed from it), let me know.

🧵One of the most encouraging trends in academia over the last decade is the semi-spontaneous emergence of a massive interdisciplinary network committed to confronting scientific racism in all of its disgusting forms and applications

the Eugene Police Department narrative that protesters broke a window and attempted to enter the federal building is a lie. The entire basis on which they declared a riot and CBP justified its later escalation was a lie.

This morning, federal agents staged at the Powderhorn Park Recreation Center lot and began to throw chemical irritants at observers. They also kidnapped an observer. Our parks are meant for our children, youth, and neighbors. They should never be militarized zones meant to separate families. 1/

The Trumpists will continue to escalate. But in Minneapolis, we can see the limits of MAGA’s assault.
Trump’s authoritarian desires are limitless. But his ability to impose them on America is not.

Just moments ago the parkway was TAKEN OVER by winter cyclists. At first I thought hundreds, but they just kept coming. Thousands and thousands! I almost cried. I’m so dang proud of MN right now.

Minneapolis is trying out new forms of resistance. They're doing pop-up blockade block parties. This one is on Cedar and 34th, a main route into the city. They have a stereo, food & a fire. MPD is present but not interfering. Lots of honks of support. ICE agents have been reported detouring around.

Demand reparations and excommunicate any representatives who aren't willing to fight for them
Dhs and ice being abolished and the murderers of Renee good and Alex pretti imprisoned are first steps for what will have to happen if and when we have free and fair elections not the sum total of the actions taken.
Liberals need to understand this if they want to win. No more mealy mouthed centrism

So what I’m gathering is a pedophilic billionaire successfully worked to destigmatize race science among the academic, political, and business elite partly by sex trafficking girls. Is that the shape of it so far?

pretty remarkable that they're no longer framing opposition in MPLS as a minority faction of radicals or external agitators. The plain truth that our city's culture is permeated by neighborly love is so galling that the only explanation they can muster is that it must be an immutable part of our DNA
